2.8.2 Installing a long expansion card If you wish to install a long expansion card, such as some types of RAID cards, you need to remove the lower hot swap drive cage and install an internal (non-hot swap) drive cage with long card guides that keep the expansion cards firmly seated on the slots. 1. The internal drive cage is optional and separately purchased. See section "Chapter 3 Optional components" for instructions on installing the drive cage. 2. The AS4 (4-SCSI configuration) and AI4 (4-IDE configuration) models support long expansion cards. To install a long expansion card: 1. Remove the plastic card lock opposite the slot where you wish to install the expansion card. Release the card lock by pressing the center tabs and pushing outward. Set the card lock aside for later use. 2. Tilt the long card as shown while aligning the metal bracket with the slot opening on the rear panel. 3. When the card is inside the chassis, push down the end of the card until it is level with the PCI slot. ASUS AP1720-E1 barebone server 2-27
